Senior vaccines

Why Do Older Adults Need Vaccines?

As we age, our immune system naturally weakens, making it harder to fight off infections. Many seniors also live with chronic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease, or lung disorders—further reducing the body’s ability to recover. This increases the risk of complications from common infections. Vaccination is a safe and effective way to reduce these risks.

Recommended Vaccines for Older Adults (5 essential vaccines):

  1. Influenza (Flu)

  2. Pneumococcal (Pneumonia)

  3. RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus)

  4. Shingles (Herpes Zoster)

  5. Tdap (Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis)
